Cannot connect Mysql database to Power BI.

MySQL 8.0.32

Power BI 2.116.966.0 64-bit (April, 2023)

mysql-connector-net-8.0.32

mysql-connector-odbc-8.0.32-winx64

Windows 11 (64-bit operating system, x64-based processor)

 When I am connecting Power BI, this error is shown. I cannot figure out the issue as I'm using the same version of all the programs. Where am I going wrong?

I'm scratching my head over this one. If possible can anyone tell me the specifications of their programs so that I can install the same?

After some trial and error, installing mysql-connector-net-8.0.28.msi helped. Now everything is working fine.

Tried it. Still shows the same error. Can you tell me the specifications of your MySQL and connectors so that I can install them?
